Hi, you can leave the view on details, but sort the files by date rather than name, and you can just do it for one folder or apply it to all folders, whatever you want. I personally much prefer file manipulation in Windows, no remembering things, just sorting, cutting or coppying and pasting where you want them to land, no typing long path names any more. I just found Windows Explorer one of my favourite programs right from the very start.

Hi Dave.Need to check this out also mate. I normally have List View set on List, rather than Details as JAWS likes this better. But I'll check it out tonight.Best wishes.

Newer files overwrite older ones anyway so you can just copy everything and leave it at that.Cheers Dave -------------------------------------------------- From: "Steve Nutt" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 12:20 PM To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [access-uk] Re: Maxter 750GB external hard driveHi Andy,Download Karen's Replicator from http://www.karenware.com.

So now we need 2 external drives, giving you 3 drives in total. But interestingly, how do you manage these? In the good old DOS days, I could, at the dos prompt type something like this: xcopy c:\mydocuments /s/date=.. where everything before or from a particular date wascopied to another directory. Must say, I miss some of these old dos commands.

Ikeep everything on mine, in fact the only thing on my internal drive now isinstalled programs, everything else is on the external one. From: Jackie Cairns Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2008 4:33 PM To: Access UK Mailing List Subject: [access-uk] Maxter 750GB external hard drive Hi AllFollowing Andy Logue's recent posts about a Maxter external hard drive he bought, we decided to go to our nearest branch of Maplin in Edinburgh today.We have been looking to increase the size on the drives we already have, andsince it has been an absolutely gorgeous day, thought we would take a tripout. We have indeed bought the Maxter 750GB, though they sold it to us at£109.99, but I didn't argue over the few pounds more than Andy paid at hisGlasgow store.Ian is currently copying our music collection over to the new drive, and it seems quite nifty. The only slightly annoying aspect of buying larger drives is that you lose a lot of space due to the formatting. For example, on this drive, the free space available is 698.whatever on a total of 750GB.That's just about 50GB lost. I've noticed the larger the drives, the moreformatting space is used.Anyhow, this certainly appears to be a good buy if anyone is thinking ofupgrading. Thanks Andy very much for bringing that to our attention.
